Scope and content
Joseph E. Ford, County Auditor, had a voting machine placed at Stadium High School so students could become familiar with the voting process. Students were offered the chance to vote on the candidates for the upcoming election. Student ballot results were announced prior to Tuesday's national election and their major candidate choices included : Franklin D. Roosevelt, Democrat, for President and Mon C. Wallgren, Democrat, for Governor. The public concurred on election day. (T. Times, 11/2/44, p. 1, names listed).
